  1. What should you do if a worker falls from height and is unconscious?

    Answer: Do not move them (unless in immediate danger), call emergency services, check DR ABC, monitor breathing

    An unconscious worker who has fallen should not be moved (possible spinal injury) unless in immediate danger. Call 999/112, check DR ABC, maintain airway, monitor breathing, and keep them warm.

  2. What is the recovery position and when should it be used?

    Answer: A stable side-lying position for unconscious persons who are breathing

    The recovery position places an unconscious but breathing person on their side to keep the airway clear and prevent choking on vomit or other fluids.

  3. What is a chemical spill emergency procedure?

    Answer: Evacuate the area, identify the substance, prevent spread, ventilate, and call emergency services if needed

    For a chemical spill: evacuate the immediate area, identify the substance from its SDS, prevent further spread using spill kits if safe, ventilate the area, and call emergency services for serious spills.

  4. What should you do in the event of a gas leak on a construction site?

    Answer: Evacuate immediately, do not use electrical switches or phones nearby, call emergency services from a safe distance

    In a gas leak, evacuate immediately as gas can be explosive. Do not create sparks (no switches, phones, or flames nearby). Call emergency services from a safe distance.

  5. What is the procedure if someone is electrocuted on a construction site?

    Answer: Do not touch them, isolate the power source, call emergency services, and begin CPR if they are not breathing

    Never touch someone being electrocuted — you could become a victim. Isolate the power source first, call 999/112, and if they are not breathing after power is off, begin CPR.

  6. What is a site evacuation alarm?

    Answer: An audible warning system that alerts all workers to evacuate the site

    A site evacuation alarm is typically a loud siren, horn, or bell that can be heard throughout the site, alerting all workers to stop work and evacuate to the assembly point.
